At the Tempe Farmers Market I saw they had some Arizona Dates.
These Black Sphinx Dates (Phoenix Dactylifera) a distinctive date variety were discovered as a rogue seedling in Phoenix, Arizona in 1928.
The date is plump and tender with a very thin, dark mahogany colored skin. It melts in the mouth leaving behind notes of caramel, vanilla, flowers and honey.
